we have to remember when the law was drafted, there were no exchanges so the law was drafted and the exchanges were supposed to be set up so "the washington post" says, listen. maybe there was a missed word or it was intentional because the federal government wanted the states to set up their own exchanges and the subsidies was the carrot that they were dangling for the states to set it up. therefore, it was intentional. >> right. well, look. first of all, doug is doing a good job, making the best argument you can make if you're on his side but this cuts everything that you just said, cuts against the i.r.s.'s position. when they wrote the section of the law that indicated who was going to get the subsidies, they specifically did not include the federal exchanges. and at the end of the day, even if it was a mistake, a typo as my learned colleague tries to say, it's too bad because mistakes are drawn against the drafters under our law system which has worked for 30 years, up until the last eight months. jenna: so what would it mean, doug, if you're in a state that did not set up their

what problems still remain for the president and his signature law? >> bottom line is the insurance companies are saying it's nice that the website deadline was -- appears to have been met in terms of getting things working more smoothly but the insurance companies believe the real deadline is about 30 days from now beginning of january when, you know, folks who enroll are actually going to be needing to move forward with the insurance and there are still problems with the so-called back end of the website in terms of getting people through the checkout line and connecting them to insurance companies. so there's still a lot more work to do even though advisers to the white house, outside advise ires are insisting they basically turned the corner. >> i think actually we are going in the right direction and for the first time and most importantly, we have effective management overseeing. we have an integrator that's independent and that seems to be effective as opposed to having c.m.s. run it. >> dr. manuel went on to say that the website is working rea

no, the problem is designed into the law itself. jenna: if you were called in, and and they said, ari fleischer, how do we go forward? >> well, first, i wouldn't answer the phone. [laughter] but if i were giving advice to the president, i'd say, one, keep your eye set on the long term. as he has been doing. the heart of this is if we can get insurance to people who previously did not have it, that's at the core of obamacare. the problem is they're doing it in a way that takes it away and hurts other people. they're not just helping some, they're hurting others. secondly, start telling all the successful stories of springs who previously did not -- individuals who previously did not have insurance who are now getting it. do they have enough good stories they can put out there to make up for the many bad stories about people paying more, getting less, not getting access, those kinds of issues. jenna: we've heard a little bit about that strategy, maybe going to local markets, local newspapers telling some local stories, making, you kno

jenna: law enforcement said this helped us. in this case with the little girl, it did indirectly help them find the suspect and the fin said it's particularly helpful in bank robbery cases as well. so is it worth it? if they're not really snooping into my phone number but finding the bad guys out there -- >> i think there's a fine balance. all of this can be done without a warrant which means that they can go on, they can pull as much information as they want to with little rhyme or reason to why they need to do it and i think that's the major concern. it's not that we shouldn't give law enforcement the adequate tools to do their job and find the bad guys but it needs to be done in a way that doesn't expose privacy concerns around american people, that can be done in a general perspective. if you look what happened with n.s.a., they had individuals that were looking at cheating spouses and things like that. nothing with government security. and that's the major concern here. what are they doing to have oversight to ensure our p
